Winter Birds Arriving

I've noticed that a couple of the birds that we typically don't see until winter are already starting to show themselves; a pair of dark-eyed juncos (Junco hyemalis) have been foraging under the nyjer feeder and today I saw our first white-throated sparrow (Zonotrichia albicollis) of the season as well.

The Farmer's Almanac has us getting a very cold, very snowy winter this year . . .
